Donor dollars ($) enabled Claresholm to be the first rural community in the Calgary zone to have a Bipap machine.  The Bipap allows patients with acute, chronic breathing difficulties such as CHF or COPD exacerbations to remain in their home community for treatment where otherwise would have been transferred to a tertiary center in Calgary.
